Self-Reflection #2
A group of people can bring together various perspectives and combine views and opinions to
solve an issue rapidly and effectively. Due to the team's culture, each team member has a
responsibility to contribute equally and offer their unique perspective on a problem to arrive at
the best possible solution. (Chin, Roger) Overall, teamwork can lead to better decisions,
products, or services. The effectiveness of teamwork depends on the following six components
of collaboration among team members: communication, coordination, balance of member
contributions, mutual support, effort, and cohesion (Hoegl, Martin & Hans Georg Gemuenden).
The purpose of this assignment is to help you reflect back on your experiences regarding
teamwork and design during the ENGINEER 2PX3 project.
